Joseph T. Taylor Hall

Joseph T. Taylor Hall, originally constructed in 1971 as the Blake Street Library, is a significant landmark at Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI). It has evolved from a central library to a hub for undergraduate education and student activities. The building features a rich history, including the establishment of an archives office, the introduction of technology access for students, and the creation of various student support services. Today, it serves as a center for academic assistance, housing tutoring programs and student lounges, making it a vital resource for both current students and researchers interested in urban education.
